More pictures

Today I sorted through pictures of Jim. That did make the two years seems like a pretty long time, when I remembered how small he was, and saw pictures of him with the older generation rats. Still, I wish we'd had more time.

Here are some of the pictures:

March 2004, just after George and Jack moved in, when Jim was still bigger.

This reminded me of the picture I just posted in the last week or so. Hard to believe they were ever so small.

September 2004. (Now you see how he got so big.)

In his nest ball February 25. I think he still looks pretty robust, although he'd started losing weight by this point.

Sunday before we left for the vet.

There are more pictures in the Gallery.

Thank you all for your good thoughts through this.

Thank you for all the great photos. Abita, I have to laugh when you say 'small'. I think your 'small' is normal-sized and your normal is like 'Ratzilla'! :-)

I think he's gorgeous. You know the saying "good things come in small packages"? That's Jim.
